Samantha Fish


We are excited to welcome Samantha Fish and her band to play Music in the MUD! for the very first time on Friday evening, March 18th, 2016.  The show sold-out within two weeks of being scheduled and we are already in the process of trying to bring Sam back, sometime in the fall.

An interesting thing that I have learned in the past few months, while booking talent, is that there are a lot of great musicians out there working as hard as they can to get their music into your ears. And thanks to the connections made between these hard-working artists and their fans, by way of the internet, many of our musicians are coming to us with nearly ready-made audiences.  For example: I sold tickets to our Samantha Fish show about 10 minutes after posting the show at our OnLine Store.  And those first tickets were sold to someone from out of town that had never been here ... in fact, they had never even heard of us until they saw, online, that Sam was going to be at Campbell Steele.

And, as a result of the great work being done on the road by Samantha and her band, we have not only sold all of the tickets, but we also have many new people coming to her show, from as far away as Illinois, Wisconsin, Mason City, Des Moines and Keokuk.

Our Spring 2016 season begins with Samantha, and continues on April 1st with another-nearly-sold-out-show featuring Bob Dorr & the Blue Band.

I hope to see you very soon for some inspiring Music in the MUD!

Craig
